Setting the Fan Speed With RivaTuner

This is a Guide for Rivatuners Fan speed control for Ati cards ( all current cards to date ) This is a real Simple adjustment . This Guide will show You how to set the fan speed manually to a constant speed ie. 50% / 60% / etc. etc. and bypasses the temperature setting of Ati's Bios setting ...

Now Locate the the enable Low Level Fan Control Box and Check it . ( previous image ) once you click it you will get a warning box as shown . click Detect Now Button . ( NOTE : if you are having issues with Riva Tuner remembering the fan settings after reboot Click the reboot now option as this will correct it )

Now you can move the Slider to a set speed . I use 70% on my cards , as its not to loud and handles the temps nicely ( adjust this to your personal preference requires . If it still running a lil hot set higher . ) After you gotten your speed you want . then hit the apply button . ( NOTE : it may change a % or 2 so dont freak out if it sets @ 69% when u put it @ 70% as shown in my screenie )

Now locate the Apply Fan @ Windows Start Up and Hit the Apply button afterwards .( this will ensure it boots up to your settings , if it doesnt after a reboot which you will check goto step 1 and in NOTE : have RivaTuner reboot comp to get fan speeds may require you to disable the fan control which is simple to do just uncheck the first box Enable Low level Fan control and renable it ) Pretty Cut and Dry ... ( NOTE : Please again Dont freak out if its a % or 2 Different from what u set it @ )
